An Excerpt of Fallen by Laury Falter

Maggie is unaware of the terrifying fate that awaits her. It isn’t until she lands in New Orleans for a full year at a private high school and her unknown enemies find her does she realize that her life is in danger.

As a mystifying stranger repeatedly intervenes and blocks the attempts on her life, she begins to learn that there is more to him than his need to protect her and that he may be the key to understanding why her enemies have just now arrived.

"Fast-paced, the story starts off strong and retains a tight rein on the momentum throughout. This book mixes humor, mystery, and the supernatural into a satisfying blend that should appeal to both young and more mature readers." (Coffee Time Romance Review)

"Great flow of interest and most unusual characters (that you will love as I have). I have laughed out loud at some of them. Good, simple, fast read that has a great hook, line and sinker." (Great Minds Think Aloud Review)

"A very good read with interesting characters and a quick pace." (Life Is Better With Books Review)

"While I was given the first book I just bought the 2nd one, Eternity, and plan to start it tonight." (The Book Hookup)

The Excerpt:

“You appear and then vanish like a ghost. You aren't injured from venomous snake bites. You
aren’t killed by wayward, incredibly sharp arrows.” Then, I reiterated, “I am the only one who
can see you…how is any of this possible?” “You do pay attention,” he said, sounding almost regretful, though I didn’t understand why.
“Yes, now will you tell me how you are capable of all that?” He paused, still looking at me, as he collected his thoughts. The muscles throughout his body
visibly flexed, tensing as he prepared his answer. “I have certain…gifts…that not many others
can claim…gifts of speed, healing, and regeneration, to name a few.” He paused, waiting for my reaction. “Don’t worry so much,” I said, teasingly. “I’m not going to run screaming for the door.”
We quietly laughed together for a brief moment. When I felt like he was comfortable again, I
asked my next question. “So, where did you get these gifts? Did your parents take some sort of special drug?”
“Not exactly. I can’t answer that, as much as I know you’d like me to. Just suffice, Magdalene,
to know that without these gifts, you wouldn’t be here right now.”
